About me: I like throwing lit matches at people.
I once wore a fake mustache while committing a crime. I burn toast consistently. I have 999 dead sea monkeys. I can't find my socks. Have you seen my socks? Chances are I think you hate me.
I'm a writer and a stand up comic with an acting and voice over background. I wrote, directed and acted in a short film called "Deadline". For behind the scenes pix and stuff go here: http://www.geocities.com/deadlinethemovie or see a trailer on my site I don't know jack about html in case you haven't noticed....
I also have a blog that's not on myspace. Or I did here for awhile And then it disappeared. After 3 years. Just like that...Now I'm blogging on blogger and on myspace here's the blogger link Please make a note of it.
Also for some reason I was in a horror movie. There were many things about it that were hilarious.
I was once trapped inside the arm of a turtleneck sweater for 2 hours.
My dog has a blog. Her name is Punkin. You should add her.

Who I'd like to meet: I LIKE: People who like me a lot. Even more than peanut butter. Comics, writers, filmmakers, dreamers, dorks, oddballs, movers, shakers, people with dogs, women who are cool, guys who are into me, and more people to set on fire.
Failure is the best part of success. They are like yin and yang; you can’t have one without the other. So learn to celebrate your failures. Truly successful people even say they are successful because they have failed more than anyone they know. They keep trying and each time it doesn’t work, it’s just a learning experience. So, go out there, Fail, Learn, Succeed. Fail, Learn, Succeed. Say it with me now, Fail. Learn.. Succeed!!!
Put it this way, you CANNOT get hung up on when something doesn’t go your way. If you stay fixated on the failure, then you cut off the other two steps: Learn and Succeed. Fight the temptation to dwell on the failure with EVERYTHING you’ve got. Get excited about failing! Then Learn, Then Succeed!!!
There was once a young man who, in his youth, professed his desire to become a great writer.
When
asked to define "great" he said, "I want to write stuff that the whole
world will read, stuff that people will react to on a truly emotional
level, stuff that will make them scream, cry, howl in pain and anger!"
He now works for Microsoft, writing error messages...
